Exploring Multilingualism and Minority Rights in the Heart of Europe
Dive into the unique relationship between law and language during our immersive Summer School in Budapest.
The Habsburg Empire was a remarkable example of a multilingual and multiethnic polity in European history. Stretching across Central and Eastern Europe, the empire was home to a diverse array of peoples, including Germans, Hungarians, Czechs, Slovaks, Poles, Ruthenians, Croats, Serbs, Romanians, Italians, Romani people, and Jews, among others. This diversity was reflected in its administration and culture, with Budapest serving as a key hub. The city's role as a bridge between East and West echoes the Habsburg tradition of balancing diverse peoples and cultures.Formularende
